Short summary
The work aims to check one of the assumptions under which the kinetic equation for water waves was derived in order to understand whether it can be applied to situations described by the Phillips spectrum, which includes rough sea. We evaluated a spectral line width of the spectrum from the simulations in the framework of primordial dynamical equations at different levels of nonlinearity in the system, and showed that it remains narrow even for the situations described by the Phillips spectrum.
